恢刺探微

针对《灵枢·官针》恢刺法理解和应用中存在的问题,从文献源头厘清恢刺法及其适应证"筋痹"之本义。认为恢刺为治疗筋痹的古典手法,主要为治疗因气机郁痹或气机不畅所致筋急而设;恢刺所用针具为毫针,操作须押手与刺手配合,押手探知筋病所在,沿病所旁侧进针,在其上下运用提插补法,针毕即可出针,属《内经》解结针法之一。在临床中对于颈椎病、腰部筋伤等急慢性病证疗效稳定可靠。

Exploration on lateral needling technique

Regarding the existing questions of the understanding and application of lateral needling technique in the Chapter 7 of Lingshu(Miraculous Pivot), after analyzing the original meaning of the lateral needling technique and its indication for "tendon bi syndrome" in literature, it is believed that lateral needling technique is the classic manipulation for tendon bi syndrome, mainly for tendon spasticity caused by obstruction of qi activity or retarded qi activity. The filiform needle is used in the operation. The puncture hand and the pressing hand should be cooperated during the manipulation, in which, after detecting the location of tendon disorder by the pressing hand, the needle is inserted from the lateral side of the affected site and is manipulated with the reinforcing technique achieved by lifting and thrusting needle. Afterwards, the needle is withdrawn. The lateral needling technique of acupuncture is one of the mass-loosening techniques in Neijing(Inner Classic). It is a reliable technique of acupuncture in clinical treatment of acute and chronic diseases, such as cervical spondylosis and tendon injury of lumber region and has a stable therapeutic effect.
